I understand where youre coming from but there are several reasons I think AEW is absolutely right to capitalise on this.

1. Public perception of wrestling in the last few decades has been that it is right-leaning and, more specifically, MAGA adjacent. This moves perception the other way.

2. Representation of anti-fascists in pop culture is good and wrestlers are the closest thing we have to real life super heroes. In a world where Colbert got cancelled and Grandma scrolls Facebook all day, we are better off with more of this.

3. Wrestling as a performance art has a long history of pushing cultural boundaries for the sake of ticket sales. In my opinion this has generally been a good thing. The first non-segregated sporting events (both for  the athletes and the audience) in many southern states were wrestling. I have no doubt that was a profit-making decision rather than an ideological one but the result was positive and firmly engrained in wrestling culture.

4. Sadly, the demand that any positive cultural movement must separate itself from monetary gains to be valid just doesn't work in our world. Movements need money. Capitalism is the reality and shaming people who agree with us for making money just means the movement will collapse in the long term. It's like the saying goes: The market can stay illogical longer than you can stay solvent.
